(A View) This is a person learning how to draw using the book mentioned in A Whole New Mind.
This was one of the activity choices but I didn't choose to do that one. I chose to do follow the links, which was where you choose a word or topic that interests you, type it into google or another search engine, and then follow one of the links. From there, select on the sites links, then one of its links, and continue. Repeat it seven or eight times, always clicking on a new link from the site you are on. At the end you are supposed to reflect on what you learned about the topic and what diversions you ran into along the way. What unusual connections between unrelated things did you find?
I went to goodsearch.com and typed in Lysol because I have a tub of Lysol wipes on my desk.
It led me to obviously lysol.com
I then clicked on my family and healthy eating
I learned that babies should, when possible, only have breast milk until they are at least four months of age I also learned that iron deficiency is the most common deficiency in the world.
Then I clicked on news and resources
Then I clicked on good clean kitchen fun: a guide to kids in the kitchen
It opened a PDF and I didn't really learn anything.
I exited out of that and went back to the site.
I then clicked on FAQs
I learned that Lysol is a non-abrasive cleaner so it will not scratch.
At the end of all of this I realized that Lysol and nutrition are not really thought to go together but in this search they were paired together. I also realized why Pink would have us do this, because it is finding all of the different details that go together and fit in ways that you never thought of.
